Summary

This study aims to investigate the effects of low-dose caffeine and taurine, administered separately and in combination, on anaerobic, neuromuscular, and cognitive performance. The study is designed as a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover trial involving trained man participants. Each participant will complete experimental sessions under different supplementation conditions, including caffeine, taurine, their combination, and placebo. Performance outcomes will include anaerobic power, neuromuscular performance, and cognitive function assessments. The findings will help clarify whether the combined ingestion of caffeine and taurine produces synergistic performance effects compared with isolated supplementation.
